Letterhead system.
This is a system for self-updating letter forms. The idea is to have
letterhead components stored in one location and have letter forms
reference that location when used so that form letters will have the
latest letterhead information. If you are generating your letterhead on
the computer or if your letter forms need to accommodate pre-printed
letterhead, you should look at this! - Last updated 10-Jul-2001 - Version

The
gender-specific words can be set/changed at the click of a button.
The fields can be inserted from the toolbar. Once fields have been inserted
from the toolbar, the document with
fields can be used by someone else who does not have the add-in by manually
changing the document property. Otherwise, they retain their gender just as if
they were ordinary text.Download Gender

PlaceBar
Customizer - Reset the "Places" in the File dialogs
of Office 2000 - Woody Leonhard - a part of WOPR
and no longer available for free download.
However, take a look at:

Favorite
Places Bar Wizard by Romke Soldaat
does the same thing as the PlaceBar Customizer and is free! A different link
- with an explanatory article is also free: Favorite
Places Bar Wizard at OfficeVBAHowever, there
is a catch! This is on the OfficeVBA site which is member-only. Don't
despair! You can sign up for a
free issue of the magazine and get 30 days of free access to the site. This
site is so good I ended up paying for a subscription to the magazine just
for these download privileges.
You don't really need to read the articles, just download the utilities. The
articles, though are good if you are trying to learn VBA because they
explain in great detail what is being done and why.

Better
Proofing - Thesaurus and Speller Improvements by Romke
Soldaat (Word 2000/2002 only)
Also on the OfficeVBA site (see above) is an Add-In
that improves the drop-down thesaurus and spelling menus by giving you
access to more replacement choices, retaining capitalization in
replacements, and allowing addition of words to multiple custom
dictionaries. Although you will want to read both articles (Thesaurus
and Speller)
you only need to download the Add-In from the Speller
article.
